Kettlebell Training PREMIUM is a structured 21-day introduction to the fundamentals of kettlebell training, created for people who want to understand what they are doing rather than simply follow random kettlebell workouts.
Each day introduces a new exercise, movement concept, drill, or progression while continuing to build on what you learned previously.
You can follow the course over 21 days, or take longer whenever you need more time to practice a movement. The 21 days provide the learning sequence; they are not a deadline for mastery.
This is the premium version of '21-Days to Kettlebell Training for Beginners' and includes:
Downloadable copy of the popular Amazon book Kettlebell Training Fundamentals
Downloadable copy of the full course summary as one PDF
More than 1 hour of additional bonus videos
5 full blown kettlebell workouts you can do or progress to
8-minute Simple Kettlebell Workout
The BIG FOUR
The Man of Steel Workout
The Iron Man Workout
Procerus Fortis 14
This kettlebell course is structured so that you can work on your progression day by day over 21 days, or you can choose to complete one after the after and see each day as a step towards your progression in kettlebell training.
Each unit has a video; in total, there is over 200 minutes of video content that covers kettlebell training. Each day has 5 to 10 minutes of video, which is followed by a text summary you can read, copy, and save for future reference by downloading it as a PDF. Most days will have a task/drill to perform or progression to work on over time.
This course has exam questions, whereas my other course 21-Days to Kettlebell Training for Beginners does not.
The course is designed to bring across all the knowledge you need to start your kettlebell training journey or learn how to train others.
After more than a decade of kettlebell training, I have been able to put together the progressions I use with my athletes, clients, and students. I'm extremely confident that this online kettlebell course will help you understand kettlebell training so that you can train or work out safely at home, in the gym, outdoors, or in your CrossFit box.
You will learn how to lift the kettlebell safely, how to clean, swing, press, row, and all the basic movements that you need to perform a full-body workout with the kettlebell. You will also understand how to warm up, cool down, work on mobility, transition, and even a bit of basic programming.
The course is designed around progressive learning.
For most days, you will:
Watch the video → Read the summary → Complete the drill or task → Practice → Film yourself when useful → Review your technique → Progress
You are encouraged to continue practicing earlier skills as you move through the course rather than abandoning one exercise as soon as the next day begins.
More than just videos
Kettlebell Training PREMIUM also includes substantial reference material you can keep and use away from Udemy.
Included with the course are:
A complete illustrated 21-Day Course Summary PDF
A 21-Day Kettlebell Training Progress Tracker
Technique and self-assessment reference material
A kettlebell buying checklist
A programming and workout builder
Day-by-day downloadable summaries
A digital copy of Kettlebell Training Fundamentals

Other courses

My other highly rated kettlebell course From Zero to Kettlebell Superhero in 4 Weeks has more text and includes exam questions, whereas this course is more visual, has required assessments, and comes with a book.
Who is teaching you?
I'm Taco Fleur.
I've spent more than a decade teaching, coaching, studying, writing about, and practicing kettlebell training.
My background includes education and qualifications across kettlebell training, kettlebell sport, Hardstyle, CrossFit, conditioning, and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu.
I am the:
Founder of IKU™ — International Kettlebell University
Owner of Cavemantrainingâ„¢
Creator of KETTLEBELL MONSTERâ„¢
I've also owned and operated functional training gyms in Australia and Vietnam and have been featured in four issues of Iron Man Magazine.
One thing I want you to understand throughout this course is that kettlebell training is not always black or white.
Different techniques can make sense depending on the exercise variation, goal, load, training style, and individual.
Rather than blindly memorizing rules, I want you to understand:
What are you doing? Why are you doing it? What are you trying to achieve?
That understanding gives you a foundation you can continue building on long after the 21 days are finished.
Is this a certification?
No.
This is a kettlebell education and training course and includes a Udemy certificate of completion.
Professional kettlebell education and certification through IKUâ„¢ is separate and involves additional education, assessment, examinations, coaching, and practical requirements.
If your goal right now is simply to become better at kettlebell training, concentrate on the course in front of you.
Build the fundamentals first.
Then keep progressing.
